Krafka Kraft is still in business. We are a small, local business and our success depends on your patronage. We are taking social distancing and recommendations from the CDC very seriously. Thankfully that doesn’t mean much change for our business as the business consists of just Ryan and Jeanette Roush-Krafka. We work in solitude from our shop and office, we take orders online and we deliver our products directly to our customers. Our one new modification (besides following the recommendations from the CDC on cleanliness, disinfection and social-distancing) is that we will be doing all client consults virtually via any form of video chat or calling that best suites you (our client). We are happy to download any app to make the consult most convenient for you. So, if as you are stuck at home and you come up with a woodworking project you would like done, contact us! We would be more than happy to work with you to make your idea into a reality. You can call us at (319)330-3373, message us on Facebook or DM us on Instagram @krafkakraft. You can also email us at krafkakraft@gmail.com or fill out a product request form our website at https://www.krafkakraft.com/contact/
Hoping you are all well. Stay safe!
Painted Toy Barns
A client came to us wanting a locally made toy barn for her grandchildren similar to the one her children played with as kids. We were really enthusiastic about making these barns. We took some artistic liberties and built them to last. These barns are made of ply wood with walnut accents. They are hand painted with classic barn colors, John Deere green for the roof, international red for the sides and white interior and accents. We hope these barns give joy to the children who play with them now and for generations to come.

Many People have TVs over their fireplaces, but don’t realize the potential harm of overheating the TV and its components. The ideal operating temperature of TVs today are between 50-104oF. Temperatures outside this range will negatively affect the operation of your TV.
A simple and elegant way to mitigate this threat of heat is to install an appropriate sized mantel to act as a buffer between the Fireplace and TV. Acting like a shield, the mantel eliminates radiant heat from the fireplace altogether. While effectively redirecting convective heat out and away from the TV.
This is the second heat buffering mantel we have installed this year for customers. What a difference it has made to fireplace room aesthetics and the well-being of one of the most important appliances in the house.
